Hi:
 
I am trying to capture packets on Infiniband interface but getting error (see below). tshark is working fine for eth0 interface. I am using 0.99.4 version and RHEL4 up3 x86_64 machine.
Is there any known solution/workaround for this issue? Can you please send me a patch to solve this issue.
 
Thanks
Karun
 
[root@st73 ~]# tshark -i ib0
tshark: The capture session could not be initiated (ioctl: Value too large for defined data type).
Please check to make sure you have sufficient permissions, and that you have
the proper interface or pipe specified.
